Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cement storage tanks, in particular to a horizontal cement storage tank. Background Art

[0002] Cement tanks are used for construction sites. Existing cement tanks are usually divided into two types: the existing horizontal cement powder tank is composed of multiple conical silos. A conveying auger that runs through the entire silo is suspended below the conical silo. The auger is equipped with multiple corresponding conical silo discharge ports and multiple butterfly valves. Its purpose is to open the first silo in sequence, enter the belly of the dragon to send the material out for use, close the valve after the material is used up, and then open the second silo to use the powder, and so on, until the entire horizontal tank is used up and refilled. After the material is added, if a butterfly valve is not closed, its disadvantages are highlighted. First, its disadvantage is that it cannot open two discharge butterfly valves at the same time, which is easy to block the auger. Second, especially for balanced conveying, the conveyed material is not proportional to the vertical dragon, which is also easy to strangle the dragon. Third, blindly loading cement without a weighing device, sometimes excessive loading causes the tank body to bulge and seriously collapse. This causes frequent maintenance and delays the progress of the project. Another type of vertical tank with a cylindrical upper part and a conical lower part has a big disadvantage of being extremely high. In addition, the weight of the cement powder cannot be determined. The cement powder transported and filled into the vertical tank is pressurized and pumped into the vertical tank by a special cement powder pump truck. The amount of cement powder cannot be determined. The traditional method is to weigh the vehicle and the powder on the scale to determine the weight of the whole vehicle. After filling, the vehicle is weighed on the scale and the weight is peeled back and forth to determine the amount of cement powder added. As a result, the filling or underfilling of a single vertical tank is left to experience. It is easy to cause a truck of cement powder to be added to multiple tanks to share the weight. It is also impossible to determine the amount of cement consumed during use. The traditional method is to use a bamboo pole to knock on the outer body of the cement tank to listen to the sound to distinguish how much cement powder is left, and make a pre-judgment to notify the addition of cement powder. This greatly affects the efficiency and increases the safety risk of the vertical tank. Utility Model Content
